    Personally, I use the phrase unborn, because it's what's in the 8th that you think we should keep. That way anti-repealers can't use faux outrage to distract from the discussion.

    I just thought it was interesting that even though you cited Getty Images, you specifically didn't use the term they used. Most likely because it didn't suit your agenda.

    As Leo says they all mean the same thing . . take it up with him

    Here is an actual miscarried 12 week old unborn child:-

    ... and it is anatomically identical to this image:-

    Looks nothing like the cartoons that you post

    And yet you couldn't bring yourself to use the phrase fetus when citing a source that used precisely that term.

    funny how you don't hold your side to the same standard
    I do indeed.
    This happens when a Christian doctor provides the best possible medical care for both an unborn child and her mother.

    You clearly don’t have the vaguest notion on how polling works sweetie. Don’t go there until you’ve read up on it even a little bit.

    I have, but clearly you haven't - the assembly was supposed to provide regional spread. Looks like the red C recruiter didn't have any pals or relatives in the following counties :

    I was asking about what you said, not Leo, but if you're such a Leo fan, I'll guess you'll be voting repeal too. Because that's also what Leo wants.

    I’ll ask again. Cos I know you’re totally unable to answer


    Acting on conscience in any matter is utterly stupid and reductive.

    If I had a shop and refused to sell to catholics or muslims because I have a sincerely held belief that they were both intrinsically evil and disordered, I’d be well within my rights in terms of belief but I’d be keel hauled in the media and the courts.
    Then we go to medicine.
    Sincerely held beliefs have no place whatsoever in medicine.


    Many families in the Mormon faith have allowed their own children die because organ transplant and blood donation is strictly against their sincerely held beliefs.


    So where are you on that? you really want to bring sincerely held beliefs and faith into this with regards doctors?

    if a doctor does not wish to cary out an abortion they have a right not to.

    Jesus you guys are totally clueless aren’t you? Getting desperate obviously too.

    nope wrong, not grasping at straws at all. something as important as this assembly has a duty to represent all counties within the state. the only one getting desperate is you with the abuse of other posters, calling them clueless among other names throughout the thread.

    Looks nothing like the cartoons that you post
    You can bring a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

    The two images are anatomically identical ... something you would expect, from an image produced by medical professionals at a US Government Agency.

    What is interesting is that you quibble over whether we are looking at an anatomically correct image or an actual photo ... when they are identical for all intents and purposes.

    The objective Humanity of both images is the key thing ... and you obviously cannot deny this ... so you quibble over inessential details instead.

    Red c don’t have pals. Nor are they biased as you suggest. You yourself can employ them tomorrow to ask any question on any topic in any part of the country
    Your ysterical conspiracy theorising speaks volumes.


    Show me now a map of the country and each church on it where the few that do attend are subject to a sermon and lecture from the pulpit that they have to listen to whether they like it or not.

    Then tell me about conspiracy and lame attempts at mind and conscience control

    I highlighted some of the differences above. They are far from identical.The reason you use cartoons and not actual images is because the real images don't look enough like a fully formed baby to suit your agenda
    How can you attribute humanity to a cartoon drawing?

    there is nothing contained within your post that is relevant to whether a christian can vote for unlimited abortion. you have not put forward an argument against anything i have written within your post.

    The images you post are OBVIOUSLY not though! You post images of fully formed babies with eye.lids, finger nails and full finger separation! The correct image of an ACTUAL 12 week old fetus has non of those attributes.

    Face you make when you realise you’re trying to get sense out of people who believe there a magic man in the sky who made and controls everything and they go to a building every week where they believe they’re eating his body and drinking his blood and somehow they believe they’re right

    And they then use bible quotes to back up their poiht.

    Jesus Christ. If you’re out there. Come save us from this utter endless stupidity.

    Oh wait.

    Why would a US Governmant Medical Agency not produce an anatomically correct image?

    Of course they did ... its just that you cannot stomach killing these unborn children in all of their undoubted humanity ... so you go into denial.

    The irony is that Jesus will Save you if you genuinely ask.

    ... and it is indeed 'utter endless stupidity' ... to not avail of Salvation.

    Wow. This, and the revelations about the ‘rogue’ selector really paint a very clear picture of what was actually going on.

    Is that not weird? It’s bizarre in fact. I’m postulating that perhaps that would be time better spent would it not? You have the highest post count i this thread by a long long way.
    I’m not clutching at anything by the way.

    Least of all at women’s wombs.

    Your post to me. I’ve asked you for clarification on my post count in this thread several times but you’ve been dodging it.
    Now you feign ignorance?

    My definition of a bully is shouting at and shaming a woman into doing something against her own body or wellbeing.

    EOTR is a repetitive nonsensical bore that thinks it knows better than women themselves.

    It makes for poor discussion and undermines totally any valid opinion from a pro life point of view.

    Deflating and destroying those nonsensical points from such a person is all too easy but best ignored.
